(11) Cheng Zexin's secret

After I went home that day, my whole body became much better, as if I had found something to rely on, and I even became confident in speaking. In the days that followed, I had to rehearse with the young actors every day, and I would spend most of the evening with them, so my relationship with them began to become closer.

I didn't notice the changes myself, and it was only after everyone got together during the day on Saturday after the rehearsal, when Cheng Zexin and I went to the dessert shop to eat ice cream, that she mentioned it a little bit.

But the point of the meeting that day was not about me, but about another boy I didn't know.

I always thought that according to Cheng Zexin's long-standing habit, when I was asked to go out to eat dessert, I would definitely be inseparable from Cao Yunxiao in three sentences, but that day before I held the cup with ice cream and nestled in the warm and soft sofa of the small shop, she didn't mention Cao Yunxiao a word, but kept saying how good I am, I can write such a good thing, and I can rehearse so well with everyone.

To be honest, this kind of compliment, listening to it once or twice, does satisfy my vanity, but her repeated words, in addition to making me feel awkward, can only give me the feeling that she has something bad to say to me and can't say it.

Practice proved that my feeling was not wrong, and after I changed to a comfortable position and sat down, Cheng Zexin sighed and took a very delicately packaged letter from my schoolbag to me.

"Xiaobai, look at this."

Cheng Zexin rarely spoke to me in such a formal tone, which made me can't help but be interested in the contents of the envelope. However, you can guess when you look at the packaging that it is so pink and tender, this must be a love letter from someone to Cheng Zexin. Love letters are also relatively private things, and I, an outsider, are not very good at reading them. So I kept the same posture as I had just done and whispered:

"I don't think it's appropriate for what I wrote for you."

"I'll let you see it to prove that you can see this thing, there's nothing bad about it, look at it."

Seeing that I refused, Cheng Zexin said as he pushed the envelope in front of my eyes again. I was a little frustrated by her attitude, so I got up and put down the ice cream, picked up the envelope, carefully opened it, and read the contents roughly.

I guessed right, such a pink package is really a love letter, but what I didn't expect was that the person who wrote a love letter to Cheng Zexin would be that person.

After folding the love letter again and putting it in the envelope, I picked up the cup again, took a bite of ice cream, and then said to Cheng Zexin:

"Just received it today? I see that the date of payment is last night. ”

"yes, when he gave it to me in the morning, it scared me, I really didn't expect that a nerd like him would write love letters to others."

"People can't be disguised, when Cao Yunxiao and I first met, I thought you were a little rascal."

"Huh? Little rascals? He's very serious, how can he be a little rascal? ”

Before Cheng Zexin could ask me, I knew that I had made the wrong analogy and said the wrong thing, but listening to Cheng Zexin's description of Cao Yunxiao seemed to be a little different from the Cao Yunxiao I knew, I couldn't help but think of the scene when I met him for the first time.

So why did Cao Yunxiao come to me for trouble for no reason?

This is a question worth pondering, so my mind ran to a distance of 108,000 miles from today's topic like a wild horse that has escaped the reins, completely forgetting that Cheng Zexin is still waiting for my answer. Cheng Zexin looked at me stunned, hesitated for a long time, and finally seemed to have finally made up his mind, and asked me:

"Xiaobai, you tell me the truth, when Cao Yunxiao mentioned me to you, didn't he say anything good about me?"

"Hmm......"

Cheng Zexin's question pulled me back from my memories, I thought about it for a long time, then sat up straight, and decided to take this opportunity to have a good talk with her.

"I vouch for my personality, Cao Yunxiao has never said anything bad about you. It's just Zexin, I've always wondered, why did Cao Yunxiao treat you like this, and you still have to be so good to him? ”

"I know he's going to tell you about it, but I guess you don't know much. I happen to be free today, so I'll tell you about it, so that you can hear the difference between the stories we tell. ”

"My father and Yunxiao's family have always had financial contacts, and the two families live opposite each other, so when I was a child, my relationship with Yunxiao was better than that between you and Fu Chengwen. And I've been soft since I was a child, I was wronged in kindergarten, I can't do anything but cry, and I always stand up for me, and I especially like to stick to him. At that time, Yunxiao was really good to me, although we were not in the same school after that, but every day after school, we always got together to eat and do homework. I don't like to talk very much, so he has always been telling me what happened to him at school, and then I know you and Fu Chengwen. For a while, I was really envious of the two of you being able to stay with Yunxiao every day, and you don't know that Yunxiao is always very happy when he mentions you. He really rarely has such an expression, so I wondered if he would be able to show that expression when he mentioned me to you. But looking at your reaction on the first day of school, I know that he has never told you about me, and I am a little disappointed, but if I think about it, I am not particularly good and worth mentioning, and there is nothing surprising that he did not mention. In fact, if Yunxiao hadn't invited my family to that birthday party, Yunxiao and I wouldn't have become like this, but it's a pity that there is no if in this world, and it's a pity that I was too shallow at that time, and I didn't want to give up what I believed. From that time on, Yunxiao began to deliberately distance himself from me, no matter what I did, he was unwilling to eat with me and do homework with me as before, and in the end he didn't even want to say a word to me, avoiding me and not saying anything, and even lied to me that he went to the experiment. I was very angry, so I pestered my dad to ask him to transfer me to the third middle school. And he deliberately approached you and Fu Chengwen, thinking that since you have a good relationship with him, I must mess up your relationship, and let Yunxiao ignore me. I'm sorry, Xiaobai, I really came with such a plan, but when I really began to understand you, I realized that you are such a lovely person, and I also want to protect you like Yunxiao and Fu Chengwen, but it seems that you have been helping me all this time, but I have not done anything for you. ”
